   I kept hearing this on the news.  I work at a gov't site in MD, just outside the DC beltway, and we certainly weren't shut down and told to go home.   What the news doesn't say is that "shut down" really means that we are on 'Liberal Leave', which means that we can leave early if we want, but we have to use our annual leave to do so... well I mean I can leave anytime I want to anyway, so there's no difference. 
 
I hope that you all who have family & friends in NYC & the Pentagon area hear that they are safe.
